Rhabdothorax Appendix B

"RHABDOTHORAX" Kamptner, 1958, p.88-90 ex Gaarder and Heimdal 1973, p.97.  Calcareous dinoflagellate genus (see Elbrächter et al., 2008, p.1301).  Taxonomic senior synonym: Scrippsiella (Appendix B), according to Janofske (2000, p.180).  This name was not validly published in Kamptner (1958) since that author did not provide a Latin diagnosis.  The generic name Rhabdothorax is validly published even though the proposed name for its type, Rhabdothorax erinaceus, is not validly published; this is because the basionym, Rhabdosphaera erinacea, is a validly published name.  Type: information not available; "type species" - Rhabdosphaera erinacea.
